I'm predicting GPU units that are mounted outside the case.

External GPU's do indeed exist but at the moment they're still kind of crap compared to a full PCI-E bus.

Depends on the connection. OCuLink-2 is straight up a PCIe 4.0 8x connection. Which is more than enough for a GPU

With Mac and steam OS gathering support, wonder when we get a universal external cards

We have, thunderbolt and oculink have existed for a long time, but macOS on M processors never added egpu support

Like OP said
